resetting of MGMAT

by Suresh Wed May 14, 2008 5:52 am

Hi Team,

I have a question regarding the MGMATs. Will I be getting a CD if I enrol for MGMATs or is it online. If it is online, will I be able to reset my question papers if I wish to retake them.

Please reply and also tell me the procedure to buy one.

Thanks

The tests are online. You can take as many tests as you want - you don't need to reset anything. You are guaranteed 6 "clean" tests (that is, no questions will be repeated on the first 6 tests). After that, the algorithm is allowed to give you questions you've already seen.

Check out the "store" section of our web site. If you enroll in the class, access is included - so don't buy them separately! Or, if you decide not to take the course, you can also buy access only to the tests, if you want. Alternatively, if you buy one of our strategy guides, you also get access to the tests (and it's cheaper to buy one guide than it is to buy access just to the tests!).

I got the same problem twice for Exam 1 and then for Exam 3
It was 'Hexagon ABCDEF'
Regular hexagon ABCDEF has a perimeter of 36. O is the center of the hexagon and of circle O. Circles A, B, C, D, E, and F have centers at A, B, C, D, E, and F, respectively. If each circle is tangent to the two circles adjacent to it and to circle O, what is the area of the shaded region (inside the hexagon but outside the circles)?

Although, it is not a problem really. Think of it, we get atleast 5-6 questions in gmatprep that are on OG11, so your tests are better.

You may check my student profile..same name as Aragorn in your database to verify.
Thanks

request on mgmat test 2

by Aragorn Wed Jun 11, 2008 5:31 pm

I had some computer problems, and I was not able to give the test #2. By the time I got it working again, my time on the test had expired. Is it possible to reset only test#2 ? I do not want to loose the data on my other tests.

Can you please send an email to techsupport@manhattangmat.com and tell them that you saw the same problem twice? That's not supposed to happen, so I'd like them to look into it. (Give them your name, the title of the question and where exactly it showed up.)

Also, there isn't a way to reset or erase just one test. The algorithm is allowed to give you questions you've already seen starting with test 7, but if you didn't actually do many questions for test 2, that means there are additional questions in the database that you haven't seen (beyond the number you'd normally expect after 6 full tests), so there's a decent chance that you will see very few repeats, or none at all, on test 7. (The algorithm still prefers to give you things you haven't seen before, but it's trying to manage a lot of variables.)
